Learning - sending transient nameId

[Norman Bodnar]

Thanks for the clarification Scott.

I was trying to learn in a sandbox what we'll need to have in place soon
for an SP (not ours) that does make use of the transient id value.

In my sandbox, when I didn't specify this attribute, I didn't see anything
being passed for nameid (transient or otherwise). Is this something that
must be requested from the SP side then? (Searching SP docs now...)
